Bridal beauty and hair trends that will make you swoon

There's nothing quite so magical as a wedding. Quite simply, even the simplest of ceremonies has everything (and more).

There's likely to be flowers and confetti, hope and expectation, family and friends, lush gowns and most important of all - love.

Almost as important, bridal hair and makeup. If you're looking for inspiration regarding either, you'll find it here in our slideshow showcasing the best looks from bridal fashion weeks the world over. Get ready to be inspired.

And don't forget to let your beau accidentally see it too. After all, a wedding is all about sharing the love.
